2 Market Review & Outlook From the CIO's Desk The benchmark KSE 100 Index finished flat in April giving up all of the gains recorded earlier in the month. Following strong performance in the preceding month (+5.4%), April started off on a strong note with the Index posting a high of 46,638 points on positive budget expectations and announcement of the much awaited amnesty scheme. However, investor enthusiasm eventually tapered off in the backdrop of weak quarterly results and increasing political noise. Trading activity picked up as average daily traded volumes increased to 104mn shares against 74mn shares in March. Foreign investors remained net sellers offloading shares worth USD 17.4mn shares, including one large transaction in OGDC, while local institutions mopped up shares worth USD 73mn. CPI inflation for April came above expectation clocking at 1.8%MoM mainly because of a surprise 3.1% rise in quarterly house rent inflation. Nonetheless, due to base effect, headline inflation rose by just 3.7%YoY. On FYTD basis CPI has averaged 3.8% well within SBP s full year target of 6.0%. However, NFNE core inflation hit a 41 month high of 7.0% in April which may prompt the central bank to increase its policy rate in the upcoming monetary policy review meeting. Further, going forward, we foresee a rise in headline inflation as the impact of high international oil prices and currency depreciation (~10%) becomes fully visible and food prices rise in the month of Ramadan. The 9MFY18 current account deficit stood at USD 12.0bn against USD 8.0bn for the same period last year. The increase in deficit is largely attributable to higher trade deficit (+20.7%). Besides reserves drawdown, the government is hitherto relying on bilateral loans to fund the aforesaid the deficit. The tax amnesty scheme, if successfully implemented, should provide further balance of payments buffer on expected oneoff foreign inflows. However, Pakistan s external woes are structural in nature driven by a weak fiscal position, little exportable surplus and low value addition. To permanently address the issue, the government will have to enact meaningful economic reforms or the economy will continue to remain in the boom and bust cycles. On the global front, fears of a trade war are expected to keep international markets volatile though rhetoric has toned down of late, while oil prices continue to make new highs on dissipating supply glut, solid global growth outlook, strong compliance with output cuts by OPEC and non OPEC oil producers and fears that US will not ratify Iran Nuclear deal in the upcoming review. Any sustained rise in global oil prices will be negative for the domestic economy given Pakistan s significant reliance on imports to meet its energy needs. In the short term, we expect the market to take cue from politics as the incumbent regime will step down towards the end of this month, giving way to an interim set up. Developments on the tax amnesty scheme would also impact market performance as an above expected response should boost investor sentiment. Over the long run, tough decisions to address structural issues besetting the economy should lend confidence to the investors. Currently, PSX trades at an earnings yield of ~10%, offering nearly ~350bps premium over the short term government paper. Notwithstanding any short term hiccups in the months to follow, we expect the equity market to deliver superior return vis à vis other asset classes over a 1 year time horizon. We recommend our investors to invest in our equity funds as per their risk appetite and return expectations. For instance, our UBL Asset Allocation Fund (UAAF) offers an appropriate strategy for investors with low to moderate risk tolerance. This fund invests in a diversified portfolio of stocks, bonds, and money market instruments. It has the potential to earn returns well above those on offer in Money Market and Income Funds, while limiting risk by investing no more than 40% of its assets in stocks at any point in time. For those, with higher risk tolerance and return expectations, we have United Stock Advantage Fund which offers pure exposure to the domestic equity market. We strongly recommend our investors to also invest in our Conventional Voluntary Pension Scheme (UBL Retirement Savings Fund) in order to avail tax benefits, grow their long term savings and achieve retirement security. For thosewith a longer investment horizon, we recommend a high exposure to Equity Sub Fund of the Scheme. We have been following an aggressive investment strategy in this Sub Fund considering its long time horizon and low liquidity/redemption pressures. The strategy has performed well and the Equity Sub Fund has generated an absolute return of % (KSE 100 Index: % since inception). This translates to an average annualized return of 27.83% p.a. (KSE 100 Index: 20.50% p.a.) thus outperforming the KSE 100Index byasignificantmargin. Syed Suleman Akhtar, CFA Chief Investment Officer UBL Fund Managers
